the wwe were trying to break up the shield for months beforehand and couldn't do it because all three guys worked together to resist it and the wwe only succeeded in breaking them up by springing it on them the night of the show when it happened, you can't say they had nowhere else to go with the gimmick it was just a continuation of the pathological need to break up tag teams

Never forget they did The Jannety for Miz and Morrison and for a twist went all in on Miz who was the xlearly less talented of the two.

And a decade and more on he still is the less talented and Morrison just has a lifetime of never being the guy because of it. So they intentionally sabotaged everyone involved including themselves because what a twist.

now im thinking about Dave comparing the Miz to Kento Miyahara again and laughing

I cannot get over that they gave Adam Cole the longest world title reign in NXT history, had his stable dominate the company for even longer and put him over everyone from Johnny Gargano to Daniel Bryan, and their first post-championship storyline capitalizing on all of that time and effort is a feud with Pat Buck, Part-Time Backstage Guy

its a feud with Pat McAfee, a retired NFL punter who doesn't even work for the WWE

remember when he called out Devin Hester and was all like "we're not afraid of him, we're not gonna kick away from him" and then Hester housed two punts and the third punt he tried to kick away from him and the punt got blocked by Peanut Tillman

So, who's Pat McAfee, and why is he getting a match?

According to a Google search, he was a "punter." Aren't punters the guys who kick and little else?

[*]The Miz and John Morrison's first guest on the Dirt Sheet is Mandy Rose's hair, a puppet they use to make fun of her and Heavy Machinery. Miz has technical difficulties with his mic, but assures the antifa group Retribution aren't booked for tonight. Their next/real guest is Sonya Deville, who defends attacking Mandy last week and mocks her some more. Heavy Machinery come out and brawl, chasing off Miz and Morrison
[*]The show ends with the antifa group Retribution chasing the commentary team and camera crew out with baseball bats. They go out into the crowd and attack the PC talent. They tip the announce table and spray paint the ring and the corona-protective glass, then destroy the ring ropes with a chainsaw

That was kinda fun. Kinda laughed at the random scribbles with the spray paint but it was a pretty wild segment that made pretty good use of the fake crowds. I hope the not antifa faction doesn't just job out at the first major ppv but they probably will. From what I hear about the potential members it could be alright.

I've been watching Renee since she was on The Score here in Canada and drat the WWE is incredibly stupid to let someone that talented leave. I would have thrown absolutely all the money at her to keep her around.

On another note, it dawned on me today that if not for the women's division I would probably stop watching WWE entirely. To be honest I already skip all the weekly shows and just follow the results so that I know what's going on to watch the occasional PPV.

But yeah, the women's division is the only thing interesting about the WWE anymore. Even when they use the same tired WWE storylines at least it still feels somewhat fresh because of the personnel involved.

even when they humiliate talent for getting over on their own it feels fresh!

  • Sasha beat Naomi in 3:39 in a Beat the Clock challenge.
  • Naomi defeated Bayley with 1:44 left on the clock. Bayley now faces Asuka first at Summerslam. Asuka came out and mocked them both, promising to be the "Empress of Every Title".

Well. They had a beat the clock challenge to see who between Sasha and Bayley must face Asuka first. Naomi came out and called the double champs “ding dongs” which I laughed at. Then Sasha tapped Naomi in 3 and a half minutes, which bummed me out but then Naomi beat Bayley which I enjoyed.

Not sure who it helped. Asuka came out dancing likr a wine mom which I also enjoyed.

Overall I rate the segment 7/10
